VW Trike Speedometer Problems

[Triker Billy]

Hi
I have a problem with the speedometer on my VW trike.
The wire pieces that bolt to the front wheel behind the gear broke off.
Can anyone tell me how they work, can I replace them?
It is an electronic magnetic type.
I will try to attach better pic tomorrow
Thanks TrikerBilly

Do you know the name of the manufacturer of the speedo? Google them and see if there's a website, or dealer outlet. You should be able to get replacement parts for just about any of them. Or, post some pics of the set-up and broken parts. There's some pretty creative folks here, and they may be able to give you some advice as to how to make a replacement part yourself.

Nice lookin' ride, by the way!

God speed and ride safe!

Problem Solved

I just wanted to let you know, I figured it out. epper:
The wire and clips were mounted on the wheel just to turn the gear. Witch operated the speedometer. I just mounted a little nylon block on wheel to turn the gear. Nothing electrical. Thanks for the reply
